How do you add like terms?
To add like terms, find the terms that have the same (or no) variable, and combine the coefficients of the terms. For instance, if you have a+b where a and b are real numbers, you can combine them.
Can you multiply unlike terms?
Yes, you can. For example 3x times 4y = 12xy.You cannot however, add like terms (to combine them, that is. There isn't anything wrong with adding them up, 3x + 4y is acceptable). For example, 3x + 4y is as simplified as it can get.

What are unlike terms?
one that won't talk to one another because they don't like each other... NO, seriously, they are terms that are different. For example x^2+2x+3x-4x^2. The x^2 terms are like terms and the x^2 terms and the x terms and unlike because they are different. Just like x and y, or apples and oranges.
What is the first step in solving an equation using logical sequencing?
